About our non-slip bath coating in Lower Halstow

It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. We work on shower trays, acrylic baths and resurfaced baths, and common reasons people get in touch are safety for older or less mobile people and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Kent. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Lower Halstow

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Which areas do you work in?

The entire UK, including all of Kent. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?

Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Safety for older or less mobile people

Our hiring checklist

Should you replace it?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Lower Halstow. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, typically overnight.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Landlord and trade work in Lower Halstow

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Prices and what affects them

Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is

Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How to get a fixed quote

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
